The verdict

Genzyme runs at 6% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Enzyme proteins (i.e., basic synthetic chemicals), pharmaceutical use, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Genzyme: 0.2 TCR = 6% of Enzyme proteins (i.e., basic synthetic chemicals), pharmaceutical use, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Genzyme safety composite

Genzyme scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 99% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).

Benchmarked live against every credibly-rated employer in the same NAICS industry code in the current OSHA extract (a segment must have at least 8 rated peers to benchmark). Not a legal or compliance determination; PlainSafetyScore's own weighting (TCR 40%, DART 35%, fatalities 25%).

Genzyme held a steady TCR band

Genzyme's TCR held near 0.1 from 0.3 in 2022 to 0.3 in 2024. In 2024, DART was 0.55× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

Genzyme has more employees than the Enzyme proteins (i.e., basic synthetic c median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.4. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
